Quick…name the point guard with the best all-around stats in the NBA through five games.
Here’s a few hints.
He’s tops in the league averaging 11.0 assists/game through five ahead of mega-stars like Rose, Paul and Rondo.
His 7.0 RPG and 9.9/40M is best among all NBA guards.
He similarly occupies the league leader position among all point guards in efficiency (and is sixth overall in the NBA).
His average points/rebounds/assists total is good enough for ninth, tied with Rondo for best among point guards.
His nearly 2.5 steals per is third to only Paul and Ty Lawson.
Still struggling?
What if I told you he’s a five-year veteran who’s averaging 15.0PPG and has only ever broken into double digits once before in his career? Or perhaps that his 7 rebounds and 11 assists/game are more than double his averages over the combined previous four seasons? Does the Houston Rockets clue even help?
If you’re like me, the name Kyle Lowry probably wasn’t ...
